But how did they know who to shift their rating on if they didn't have the ratings from the group in front of them?

You're like the loudest voices repeated the most.

Right.

The most extreme loudest person who's willing to constantly berate everyone.

It reminds me of those experiments.

They have a bunch of Confederates and then there's one person who's the test subject.

And it's like, okay, which circle is bigger?

And everyone's like pointing to the small one.

If you think it's a small, raise your hand.

Then the person who's, wait a minute, that's clearly the smallest, not the biggest.

They're looking around and their hand like slowly goes like, oh, I guess I am wrong.

And it's like they're just they won't even believe their own eyes at that point.

Is this how bad social norms or corrupted social norms develop and come into play?

Because people think because a social norm exists that everybody agrees with that.

I'm thinking primarily, I guess, of racism, for example.

Yeah.

So there's so many people that grow up in a racist environment, and this is an embarrassing example, I think, I might get in trouble for this, but my dad's family, half the family is kinda racist.

Michigan in the 50s and 60s and 70s, it was just a little bit racist, and it's weird, right, because they're like teachers in Detroit public schools, but they say racist stuff all the time.

But my dad is not at all.

And he was very much, hey, we don't talk like that at all.
